Born to Sparkle: A Story About Achieving Your Dreams

In her debut children’s book, public speaker, artist, and television personality Megan Bomgaars introduces a female lion cub who, along with her many jungle friends, teaches what it means to believe in oneself and reach for the stars. She begins by stating, “We are all born to let our sparkle shine” and encourages sharing the love with which we’re born with the world. She says that anything is within reach––becoming a doctor, an astronaut, even a homecoming king. First and foremost, though, it’s essential to work hard to propel those dreams into reality.

This is an adorably illustrated book filled with precious characters whose actions and emotional depictions will pull on children’s heartstrings. The glittery cover design and warm pastel hues within will welcome readers into a journey of positivity. They’ll learn they’re capable of things big and small and that with diligence and aspiration, they can achieve their greatest visions. “There are no limits,” according to the lioness.

This sweet and thoughtful story is ideal for children ages four to eight. It’s relatively short, making it a perfect bedtime read. It’s sure to leave a lasting impression on those who need it most.
